tire rack has a decent selection of race tires.

but one of your problems are that drag and road race tires are completely different in design.. yeah, the track tires will work for drag, but you'll be better off buying another set of stock rims or something and putting a pair of drag tires on the fronts. (remember, you only need a pair of drag tires. )
